Fire and evacuation exercise at EHK
On Wednesday, 8 November 2023, a fire and evacuation exercise will be conducted in the building at Emil Holms Kanal.

At some point during the day, the alarm will sound, and you then have to leave your workplace and exit the building through the nearest escape route staircase. Only escape routes must be used, just as if it were a real fire. If there is a seal on handles, break the seal and open the door.

Please familiarise yourself with the nearest escape route before Wednesday. Remember, it may be behind you.

If you have any questions beforehand or feedback afterward, please contact FM at FM@itu.dk.

Distinguished Speaker Series feat. Mikkel Flyverbom
CDW presents our next Distinguished Speaker Series event featuring Mikkel Flyverbom: "Overlit: Seeing, knowing and governing in a datafied world".

Technologies, data and algorithms work as ‘digital prisms’ that make social life visible in novel ways. When social phenomena and our lives become digital and datafied, they are refracted, and this has consequences for human visibilities, knowledge production and the governance of social and political affairs.

In this talk, Mikkel Flyverbom will unpack these developments and discussions. 

When: Friday, 17 November, 14:30-16:30
